Alan sat down with Dr. Matt Burton to talk shop in a "swanky" new Chicago Dental Society podcast lounge that's a far cry from the usual exhibit hall floor. Matt shares the latest evolution of the Quad Matrix System, detailing how a few "minor" tweaks to wedge angles and material firmness are making a massive difference in clinical predictability. Between the deep dives into dental engineering, the conversation takes several hilarious detours—ranging from the high-speed, contempt-filled experience of Chicago taxi rides to the traumatic sight of a mascot (Hadley the dog) with its head off. Whether discussing the "smell of money" (anaerobes) or the potential for a dental-themed Voltron mascot, this episode balances technical expertise with the kind of irreverent humor that makes the Very Dental Network what it is. Key Takeaways from the Conversation The Evolution of the Quad Matrix: Matt discusses the "Matt Burton magic" found in the split-wedge design and the accompanying ring. The newest version features firmer materials and trapezoidal shapes to prevent matrix displacement. The "Renewable Resource" of Dentistry: A shift in focus from "Production" to "Profit." Matt argues that direct restorations (Class IIs) are the backbone of a recession-resilient practice because they have lower overhead and higher frequency than elective procedures. Eliminating Technique Sensitivity: Using high-quality tools isn't just about the result; it's about reducing the "sweat factor" and mental fatigue. Matt explains how a predictable matrix system turns a stressful procedure into a step-by-step win. The "Tryout" Procedure: Why the humble filling is actually your most important diagnostic and relationship-building tool. Flubbing a Class II is the fastest way to lose a new patient's trust. Invention Anxiety: Matt opens up about the "scary as hell" process of patenting and the "fake it until you make it" mentality required to bring a new dental product to market. Mascots and Misadventures: A hilarious warning about seeing mascots without their heads and a pitch for Garrison Dental to adopt "Anarobe" or "S. Mutans" as official characters.

Wir lesen 12 kleine Auszüge, die Einblick in historische Hintergründe, erzählerische Feinheiten und die besondere Atmosphäre des Textes geben. Monat für Monat nähern wir uns so den Spuren, die das Silber – als Rohstoff, Machtfaktor und Projektionsfläche – in Geschichte und Gegenwart hinterlassen hat.Unsere zwölf Sendungen werden das ganze Jahr hindurch jeweils an einem festen Tag im Monat online gestellt.

Und es bewegt unsere Welt bis heute, als Rohstoff und als Wertanlage. Tillmann Bendikowski erzählt uns seine atemberaubende Geschichte.In vielen Szenen beschreibt er die Jagd nach dem Edelmetall und verfolgt die Spur des Silbers rund um die Welt: Von der Ausbeutung der Silberminen durch die Spanier, den Silberflotten und der Sklaverei, vom globalen Handel, der neben grenzenlosem Profit auch Elend und Hunger mit sich brachte, über das NS-Raubsilber bis zum Familiensilber unserer Zeit. Es sind Geschichten von Königen und Sklaven, von Konquistadoren, Piraten und Kaufleuten. Ohne die faszinierende Geschichte des Silbers ist die Welt von heute nicht zu verstehen.Dr. Tillmann Bendikowski, geb. 1965, ist Journalist und promovierter Historiker.

This one's for the business owners out there! Kiera discusses all things overhead — what's normal, what's high, how to lower it, and what overhead even means in the first place. She then goes into specific tips of what it takes to lower that overhead quickly and responsibly. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera and oh I hope you're ready for today's podcast today's podcast is one that I Love but you might not love it But guess what after today you're going to love it and you're going to know why because this is an episode for the business owners out there and office managers and team members guys, I   Love, love, love, love, love talking about overhead. What's normal, what's high and how to lower your overhead and what does overhead even mean? And I know that this is something where maybe you've heard it in the past and guess what? One of the greatest tools to learning is remembering. And so today I'm gonna walk you through how we get overhead and how we're able to lower it fast. ⁓ I have found when consulting hundreds and hundreds of offices, the number one pain point is cashflow. We actually just created ⁓ like,   amazing little graph and document of how offices are looking at things and how we, this is like just a pyramid. And if you guys are watching, we're going to see how good I do. Gosh, I'm not, okay, Paul, it's not pretty enough. I won't share it yet, but we actually built this like pyramid to show kind of a proven path from chaos to control and how we go.   Like what is the base layer that causes offices the most amount of stress and how it goes up. so base layer of this triangle is cashflow and profit stability. Then after that, it's time delegation or removing the doctors a bottleneck. Then we go up to systems and consistency. Then we do leadership and CEO transition, and then it's legacy and optionality. So, and this was like really fun because I like put it all together and I was like, okay, guys, I figured out what causes Dennis the most. Like we're talking hundreds and thousands of offices and putting it together.   And then our marketing team was amazing and Paul, shout out to him, he took it and he was like, all right, here, here you go. This is what it is. And what I looked at is so many people come in and like, here, we need systems, like, because we don't have cash. So they think that the systems will get them the cash, but knowing the right system. And this is oftentimes where it feels like whack-a-mole is we're putting in the wrong system, trying to get the outcome. And so it's like putting in the correct lever to be able to move. And then you're like, well, I need a leadership team.   But if you're on cashflow row, you're not thinking about a leadership team. You're like, I gotta get out of the burning bush. But if you're on cashflow positive, you're like, gosh, I'm just like stuck in all the weeds. Well, great, we need like to build you a leadership team and we need to get systems in place for you. And we need to look at which systems are not working. And so that's why I wanted to go into overhead for you today of how, like what is overhead and how is it working for me or against me? And how do I get this down fast, AKA more profit for you. And that's not because we wanna be rich and like,   whatever, I want you to actually be very wealthy. You like put in a lot of time and effort, but we want you to be making profit as a business. If you're not making money, it's a hobby and it's a liability and it's stressful. And we need to get you out of that stress zone so you can do the best dentistry, the best care. So when I look at offices, a lot of times they're not under producing, they might be overspending. And when I look at profitability, there's three levers. We need to produce more, collect more, or reduce our spending. are the three ways to get there.   And so that's how we're gonna look at these. Those three make more profit. So when I look at this and when I look at your biggest pain point that most offices are struggling with is cashflow. And why? Because you were taught to be a dentist, you weren't taught to be a business owner. So you're like, great, I made money, but I don't know how to spend the money and I don't know what I'm overspending. I was talking to someone and ⁓ this is a dear friend to me and she's running her business and this is like leading me into a possible other business idea that's been percolating for me. She was like, Kiera.   She's not in dentistry. She's in a different industry. she's like, Kiera, I made 200,000 this last year. And I was like, dang girl, I'm super freaking proud of you. And she's like, I took them 48,000. And I was like, what? She's like, yeah. And I said, well, hold on. She doesn't have employees. She's solo. And I was like, but why? Like, okay, 200,000, let's take taxes out of there. Even if you're sitting at 37%, which you're not, let's just.   we'll chunk 40 out of that, okay? Like let's do 40%. So was like, that's like 80. That's like really high. You probably are like 60,000 out for taxes. So we'll put you at 200,000 minus 60,000. We're at 140. Where did you spend like a hundred grand? And she was like, Kiera, I don't know. I don't know. And I thought to how many business owners feel like her? How many people feel like, but I made this money, but I don't have it and I don't know why.   Like gosh, 200,000 only taking home 48. Like you might as well go work for someone else. She's like, I worked more. I'm not with my family. I've done all these things. And I feel like that's how I feel so many dentists feel. They're like, I'm working harder than I was as an associate. I have all this stress. I'm not sleeping. I'm not with my family. And I'm not even making the money that I want to be making. And so I'm just really pro of like, Hey, there are solutions and there are ways. I think understanding what overhead is, understanding how business works.   and using it within your dental office is going to help. So, Dental A Team, I'm obsessed with helping you guys have your best lives. ⁓ Our job is to help you hit profit goals, control costs, not always have to produce and work more. Like let's work smarter, not harder. ⁓ And really it's just to positively impact the world of dentistry. We call it the Yes Model. So focusing on you as a human, earnings and profitability, and then systems and team development. Your business should truly serve your life, not the other way around. And so, ⁓   Let's just like dive into what is overhead. I don't want any of you to be like my friend and honest. I'm going to get that friend out of that dilemma. I'm like, I think this is how I was. I think that it comes from, right? Like, why do we build companies? We build them out of like necessity for ourselves. We build them out of like things that we had. We build them from like, I've been there, done that. And here's how I'm going to help you. But we also need to learn how to be really strong business owners. And something I feel like I've been really proud of and something I'm really grateful for is   The language of business has actually made a lot of sense to me. was good with math. used to, you guys ready? Another random Kiera job. ⁓ I was a math tutor for quite a lot of my life actually and taught littles. I didn't go, I was not into calculus. I was doing algebra, geometry, like little kids. I had a whole tutoring business. Like that was another business I started up. Cause I found out what they were paying me as a tutor versus what they were charging the client. And I was like, heck no, I'm doing my own business. It is really hard to do marketing in case you're wondering for tutoring, but.   I got my little business over the summer and drove around all these houses. ⁓ But math has always kind of made sense to me. Like one plus one equals two. And I like it because with math, maths, it's very fun. And so when I look at overhead and I look at targets, I'm like, all right, what does it mean? So overhead is the total amount of money that it costs to run a business. Okay. So that's what overhead is. And you know what? These are pretty slides. So I think Paul will be just fine.   ⁓ We actually have an entire presentation that we did on like preventing cashflow leaks and what is like the dentist profit plan? So I'm gonna actually show you guys if you're watching awesome. I think this will be a fun thing for you to see   Okay, so what is overhead? And I think these slides just break it down really simply. And if you're audio listening, great, I'm gonna tell you what's on the slide. So what is overhead? It's all the costs to run a practice. So we're talking payroll, rent, labs, supplies,   anything under the roof.   It does not usually include Dr. Pay. Now I'm gonna throw a disclaimer. I am not a CPA. Talk to your CPAs about this. I'm gonna just tell you how Kiera has learned it and how it's made sense for me when it didn't make sense, okay? So that's overhead. And I get annoyed with the overhead and this is why I prefer to talk profit versus overhead because the fact that it doesn't include Dr. Pay annoys me per CPA usual guidelines. Now I'm not saying all CPAs, but usually this is like how it is. It's all the costs, but they don't include Dr. Pay because you're a business owner. So like, why should we pay you?   Now, what is profit? Profit is the total after overhead and doctors are paid. So I like doctors to be paid 30 % of production. Think about it, that's what associates are usually paid. You can be 35%, I don't actually care. Like whatever it is. So in this simple equation, we would do revenue or production, AKA collections, minus overhead, minus doctor pay equals profit or available funds, okay? So if we're in a practice and we produce and collect, because if we produce but we don't collect, remember that's gonna hurt.   ⁓ 100,000, we minus 50,000 of overhead costs like our rent, our payroll, our supplies. We pay our doctor 30%, so 30,000. We would have profit with air quotes of 20 grand. Okay, I did perfect easy math for you. If our doctor was 30%, if our overhead was 50%, our profit would be 20 % on $100,000 practice, okay? So these are the levers. We either increase production, decrease costs or increase our collections. That's how we're gonna do it. Now, what is cash flow?   Cash flow is profit minus debt services, okay? This is where it gets weird, because you're like, well, it says I'm profitable and my overhead's good, but I have no cash. Well, this is why, because we have debt services, which oftentimes like our student loans and sometimes they're building loans. Those are debt services that don't actually get included in overhead. And this is a CPA, it's how it gets like deducted down and all of that. So like you can deduct certain things, but that doesn't mean the cash is taken out. It got.   written off, do tell the like laws that are way beyond my pay grade. So profit minus debt services is cashflow. So debt services are practice loans, equipment loans, student loans sometimes are or may not be included in this. You got to check with your CPA and your personal expenses. So what happens is we have a business and this business is producing 2 million for us, okay? Our overhead, let's say we're like really kicking it and we're at 50 % overhead and our doctor is being paid like rock on, doctor's paid.   So we've got money left over, but then on that leftover, yes, doctor, your business is doing well, but you as a human also have expenses. You have your life expense, you've got your student loans, you have all of this, which is why you don't feel like you've got cashflow, not to mention taxes, okay? So when we look at this, what is an ideal over it? And this is where it gets like really hard, like my overhead and my cashflow, and like my overhead's good, but I don't have cash. Well, it's because we haven't like put it all together for you and we haven't made it to where like, okay,   What is John's personal life? What are your costs? What are our debt services? What are the costs of the business? Great, now we set our office goals. And sometimes you have to be careful because your life expenses might be more than your business can produce. And I know that that's annoying and I'm really sorry, but we have to also live within our means of what our business can do. We can't squeeze out our business when we're looking at it and we're like, well, shoot.   you might be overspending. again, I'm not here judging. There's no judgment here. I just want to be realistic. One plus one equals two, always in math. And that's why I enjoy it. So when we look at this, our goal is to have you profit 20 % and an overhead of 50%. Remember, 50 % overhead of the cost, 30 % doctor pay, 20 % profit. That does not mean you're taking home 20 % of that profit and of doctor pay. You owe taxes on that. So that's super fun. Take that out. Just like my friend, right? We took taxes out. And then from there, we got to pay our debt services. We've got to have our life. Then whatever is left.   Over is your cash. That's why it's hard. So this is where people are like, I don't get it, Kiera. No, you do. And I'm gonna teach you, okay? So we wanna have those. Now, when we have an overhead calculator, what we do is we wanna get this to 50%, 60%, like that's great. Cause the less we spend, the greater our profit is, right? Like if I make a hundred dollars and I only spend $20, I have $80 left over. That's great. But if I have a hundred dollars and I spend $80, I don't have $20. We made a hundred.   but how are we spending? So again, it's either increased production, increase our collections, because your production might be there, but if your collections are lagging, you might not have as much cash. Why? You produced it, but we didn't collect it. That's a big problem. But if we produced and collected what we need, then what's our spending? And I will tell you, usually expenses can be pretty high. So we look over here, and on this example here, I've got it at 60 % total overhead. So like our payroll should be about 30%, dental supply should be about 5%, lab should be about 7%.   facility equipment 8%, advertising 2%, office supplies 1%. Like break this down however you wanna adjust it. Your rent might be so hard, bank charges I hope that they're less than 3 % for you. But all these add up and you can adjust these and these can be moved around and say like maybe if we only had our payroll at 25%, I'm not here to say pay your team less. We just are looking at like what things can we do? In this scenario on the screen, doctors only at 20 % of this and their profits 10%. Well, it's because our-   Our overhead is at 60%, we're high and we have debt services of 5%. That's why. So costs really do matter. So if we collect 100,000 and our overhead before we paid our doctor was 73,000, our overhead is 73.82. That's without even paying our doctor. Well, then our doctor got paid 20%, okay? So 73 plus 20, we're at 93%. Woohoo, we're living on the edge there. We have debt services at 5%, this poor doctor is negative.   They got 1.18 % on a $100,000 collection month. They're not quite negative. Like their total overhead over there, it's like not where we want it to be. So it's negative based on the thing, but their net profit on a hundred thousand is 1100 bucks. Well, that feels like junk. Like, yeah, I got paid 20 grand, but after I paid everything out, my total expenses for this, and this is where I think people get weird. And that's even before we paid taxes. My overhead was 73, my doctor salary is 20,000.   my debt services were 5,000. So we add all that together and that's how we get up to that 98, which leaves us with 1176. That's annoying. They're not doing good. This is where the cashflow crunch happens. So when we look at this, and this is why I really love to show you like what is cashflow, what is overhead, and hopefully you're able to see that. And if not, hopefully I explained it well enough for you. And I wasn't just talking on the screen. I tried to make it to where you guys could hear it and see it. But when we look at this, this is where I get annoyed because like, okay, what can I do then to reduce it? I just told you.   We either look at what are we spending and I just gave you some parameters. So can I get my payroll or my supplies or my labs down? Can I give my team a 4 % of collections from last month and that becomes our supplies? Yes, you can. And we can start tracking that. So there's little things we can look at and we can see what can I reduce down? How can I trim this down? And honestly, trimming your overhead. So we stop spending. If you're a CE junkie, great. We give you a budget of X amount of dollars and that's all you get to spend. The rest doesn't. We look to see where are we overspending?   Maybe we are overstaffed and so we need to increase our production based on the amount of staff members that we have. I love team versus staff, but like, let's look at that, okay? So let's look at it and let's find out where is one or two categories on your P &L that are out of it. And if you need an overhead calculator, be sure to reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. I love to share that with people. So review your P &L, look at it. Let's look at our overhead, see where we are. Your goal is to be at a 50 % overhead before a doctor's paid or a 20 % profit, okay? Now we look at payroll.   Are there ways that we could look at this? Are there ways that we could cut it down? Can we make it to where people are not clocking in, clocking out too much? How are we going to be able to have this? And this like 30 % is all fringe benefits, everything included in there. So what can we do on there to make sure that we're profitable in that? Can we like look at other ways? Can we outsource things? Like our hygienists are expensive. So is there a way that we can maybe outsource some billing? Again, not to say to fire team members. want our team members. Teams are assets. They're not liabilities. But what things can we get creative on?   no overtime, that's a no-go. People only work 32 hours. We work on four-day work weeks and we rotate. There's a lot of different things you can do, but looking at that, committing to it. And then the next thing is like, let's figure out what is our true BAM of the company, including cost of the company, cost of paying our doctor, cost of our debt services, and then let's work backwards. Okay. That's how much we need to produce. And this is how much we need of profit. Then what do need to do on diagnosis and production on the top half?   and scheduling and creating a block schedule for that. Now, if you're like, I don't love numbers, Kiera, and what you just said was so awesome, but so scary, great. Reach Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. want to talk to you because when you can say and truly feel it in your bones, I love numbers and numbers loves me. You are going to feel so much more confident as a business owner. The reason people get scared on overhead and profit margins is because they don't understand the language of business. They don't understand how money works. They don't understand how taxes work.   So I decided I was so sick of crying in December. I said, that's it. I'm not gonna cry in December anymore. I'm going to become a tax expert on this. So what I do every single month is we have our overhead. We know what our overhead is. I know what Kiera's pay and comp is. So we take that. I also take taxes out of there. I have buckets set up of how much we're gonna put in of savings. I've got a BAM for our company. And I did not do this overnight. I make sure our collections are there, our productions there. We make sure that our overhead is in check based on industry standards.   We start to trim away one or two or 3 % from there. So we trim and make sure we've got all of our ducks in a row. Our collections are at 98%, our production's where it needs to be based on the cost of the business and our overhead, we've trimmed it down, we're getting it to 50%. You can also get your overhead lower by increasing your production. Could I do better higher dollar per hour procedures? What can I do to get my dollar per hour up 50 or $100 per hour more? Can we do same day treatment that's gonna help our patients? Absolutely yes.   What about our hygiene? Are we taking x-rays at the right time? Are we doing fluoride and fluoride therapy? Are we blocked scheduling correctly to make sure that we're hitting our numbers? Is our case acceptance, could we increase that? Yes, these are the ways that you get there and these are ways that you do it quickly. And so knowing your benchmarks, knowing how cash works, knowing how overhead works, knowing how this works, this is half the battle guys. Like just listening to the podcast high five, like pop the confetti. I wish I could like sprinkle confetti for you. This is half the battle.   So you learning it and committing to like, want you, I have a doctor and we were like profit and production. That's all we're going for. And that's what we talk about because this is the base. If we can get your cashflow up guys, everything else falls into place. Like truly it really does. And then we're able to do more things because cash is there. We know you're taken care of. You're more stable and confident. And I remember Ryan Isaac with Dentist Advisors. He and I were chatting, gosh, we're probably talking like 2019, 2020. And he said, team members, you want your doctors to be so profitable because when a doctor is confident in their cash.   they are confident in their business and they're not stressed out. Now, that doesn't mean that you can't have like spending problems. I've seen that with other doctors, like business is doing great, but we have a spending issue. That's a you issue and you need to like have discipline on that. But I will tell you being confident in your cash, being confident in your profit, being confident in your overhead, what those mean is half the battle. And this is what I actually obsess about. So we actually teach our doctors. ⁓ We have an overhead calculator. We look at your overhead every month. We have scorecards for you.   We teach you, we look at it, we have goals that we set together. We look at your diagnosis, we look at your case acceptance, and we figure out which lever will be the fastest, easiest to move with you. And this is how we're able to do it with you guys. So reach out, commit to being like cash is king, profit and production. You are going to be a profitable practice and you're gonna make the money that you deserve to make and that you want to make. And we're gonna just do a backwards equation with you. We're gonna figure it out and we're gonna lock down. I have a CPA and she said, Kiera, I will recommend Dental A Team all day, every day. She said, you have made my clients more profitable than.   any other consulting company, that's because we are going to be obsessive about profit and production and you getting your overhead down. So reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. And as always, thanks for listening. I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team podcast.

If your marketing feels like it requires too much explaining, convincing, or creating, the issue may not be your effort, it may be your messaging. In this episode, I break down why messaging isn't about persuasion, volume, or being louder. It's about recognition. When your words clearly signal who you help and at what buying moment, everything gets easier: sales conversations shorten, client quality improves, and you spend less time over-explaining. The result - more profit.   This Episode Is Part of a Series: In this high-leverage growth series, I'm guiding you through the most powerful ways to simplify your business and increase revenue with more ease. If you missed Lever #1 (The Buyer Moment), Lever #2 (Your Offer as a Profit Lever), Lever #3 (Existing Proximity), or Lever #4 (Strategic Partnerships), go back and listen.

One of the most common dilemmas facing coaches today is the struggle between being a "teacher" of information and a true "partner" in transformation. Much like the difference between knowing a concept and embodying it, these two roles are deeply interconnected, feeding into one another to create a powerful client experience, and Jenni and I are breaking it all down for you in this one.

Recurring revenue sounds smart. Memberships, prepaid packages, and gift cards can create a surge in cash flow for med spas — but without proper financial tracking, they can distort your profit margins, inflate revenue perception, and create operational risk.  Listen here to learn how aesthetic practices can misinterpret cash injections as true growth — and what to track instead.  If you're operating 1–2 locations and planning to scale, this conversation about healthy cash flow management for your aesthetics practice is critical.  Are Gift Cards Creating False Revenue Expectations for Your Practice?  Whether you run a med spa or a similar practice, you'll learn why simply chasing upfront cash isn't always the ticket to success—and how these models can create a false sense of profitability, throw off your capacity planning, and even compromise your ability to deliver services in the future. I'm revealing how a CFO tracks different income streams, forecasts cash flow, and helps you build sustainable financial habits, so you don't end up borrowing from your future business.  Prepaid revenue can:  Inflate top-line sales  Hide future labor costs  Distort margins  Create scheduling unpredictability  Mask capacity constraints  "The issue with this, however, is when not done well or not done with this in mind, you're putting yourself at risk for a very distorted view of your sales, of your numbers, and not really making sound business decisions based on good data." - Shannon Weinstein  To cut to the chase, cash in the bank does not equal earned revenue.  Cash Injection vs. Sustainable Growth: Making Better Business Decisions  We're seeing a huge trend in med spas and wellness practices: everyone's jumping on the recurring revenue train with memberships, subscriptions, gift cards, and prepaid packages. It sounds great on the surface—more cash in the bank, better sales numbers, right? But here are a few things you'll learn in this episode that might change your mind:  Why gift card revenue is a future liability, not pure profit  How prepaid packages distort med spa profit margins  Why capacity utilization matters more than cash balance  How to segment revenue categories properly in QuickBooks  Why you should reconsider commission structures on prepaid sales  How memberships affect enterprise value and predictability  Protecting Your Aesthetics Practice from Recurring Revenue Traps and Misleading Data  Collecting money upfront (especially around holidays with gift cards) can feel like winning. Who doesn't love a surge in revenue and a healthy bank balance? The catch is, those numbers don't always paint an honest picture. You might be thinking your marketing is working wonders, but really, your sales are getting propped up by gift card purchases. When it comes time to deliver the actual services, your costs catch up—and you don't have new income to cover them.  If your med spa offers memberships, gift cards, or prepaid packages:  Segment revenue by category (services, retail, memberships, gift cards, prepaid packages)  Track redemption timing based on historical data  Build a 6-week cash flow forecast including expected redemptions  Measure revenue per provider and revenue per square foot  Monitor capacity utilization instead of celebrating temporary cash spikes  Evaluate LTV to CAC separately from prepaid sales  I compare it to the GLP-1 weight loss trend: quick results, but they don't last unless your habits are solid. The same goes for business cash injections. If you don't have the right financial habits, you get a false sense of achievement that fades fast.  Memberships and Prepaid Packages: Boost or Bust for Your Med Spa?  If your monthly numbers look amazing, but you're just selling future services, don't rush to expand or boost sales goals. Before expanding, make sure your growth is real by evaluating the following:  Are you mistaking cash injections for sustainable demand?  Is capacity actually full — or artificially inflated?  Are membership liabilities masking thin operating margins?  Buyers and lenders look for predictable earned revenue — not volatile cash surges.  Essential Metrics for Med Spas: Beyond Cash in the Bank  If you're unsure whether your med spa's cash flow is sustainable — or distorted — start with the Financial Scaling Playbook for Aesthetics. Get it today: www.keepwhatyouearn/playbook  Inside the free series, I walk you through:  Identifying your biggest financial constraint  Cash flow forecasting basics  Evaluating offer profit correctly  Preparing your practice for scale  Follow Shannon & Keep What You Earn:   Shannon Weinstein is the founder of a fractional CFO firm specializing in helping 7-figure aesthetics and wellness practices scale with clarity, cash flow, and confidence.

In this solo episode of the Casual Cattle Conversations Podcast, Shaye checks in a little over two months into 2026 and shares a simple ranch audit process to avoid setting profit goals blindly and to create benchmarks for improvement. She explains that audits help ranchers understand where they stand before making changes. The three-step audit includes: (1) defining what success means for your ranch (unique to each operation), (2) ranking confidence from 1–10 in key areas such as finances/bookkeeping, reproduction, genetics, nutrition, grazing/resource management, and health, and (3) assigning measurable metrics to each area (e.g., break-even, pregnancy rate, calving interval, death loss, treatment costs, costs vs returns). She encourages prioritizing improvements that align with the ranch's definition of success and references her course Profit Foundations for Ranchers for a deeper process.   Links & Resources Learn more about Performance Livestock Analytics here: https://bit.ly/47PxY3W  Learn more about Red Angus here: https://bit.ly/4iaU6bb  Learn more about At the Yards here: https://bit.ly/400T7mF  Learn more about CattleMax here: https://bit.ly/4aG7K5q  Catch more conversations like this one and learn more at https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/   00:00 2026 Ranch Check In 00:20 Podcast Welcome Back 01:38 Why Ranch Audits Matter 02:12 Profit Mistakes To Avoid 03:51 Three Step Audit Plan 04:38 Define Ranch Success 06:36 Rank Confidence Areas 08:24 Add Metrics Benchmarks 09:36 Example Benchmarks 12:05 Prioritize Improvements 12:50 Course And Final Wrap

Welcome to Food for Your Soul – a podcast for those who love in-depth Bible study and expository preaching. In this episode, we explore Mark 10:28-31 and Jesus' radical teaching on the cost of discipleship and the rewards that come with following Him. What does it really mean to "leave everything" to follow Jesus? And what exactly does He promise in return? Jesus doesn't sugarcoat the cost of discipleship, but He offers a 100-fold reward—an eternal family, spiritual blessings, and more. In this episode, you'll discover: The Cost of Discipleship: What must you forsake to follow Christ? The Profit of Discipleship: The unimaginable rewards Jesus promises. The Church Family: the Body of Christ If you enjoy the episode, please consider subscribing to the podcast and leaving a 5-stars rating. This helps others find the podcast. My sermons are the fruit of nearly 30 years of pastoral ministry, biblical counseling, formal seminary training, and a lifelong passion for God's Word. Since childhood, I've been drawn to the beauty and power of expository preaching—opening Scripture verse by verse and applying it to real life. After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I spent the next 27 years serving as a youth pastor, senior pastor, church planter, and host of the Food For Your Soul radio broadcast.

Welcome back to Money Monday — the series where we talk about the numbers, habits, and financial systems that most salon owners avoid… but desperately need to understand.In this episode, I'm walking you through exactly what I do with every single dollar that hits my business bank account — the weekly system that completely changed the way I run my salon.Quick disclaimer before we dive in: I'm not a Profit First coach and I'm definitely not a financial advisor. I'm simply a salon owner who implemented the Profit First system by Mike Michalowicz, and it has completely transformed the way I manage money inside my business.Inside this episode I break down:

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS redefines profitable SEO as more than just rankings — it is profit multiplied by time. He introduces the concept of a foundational evergreen operating system: being where people are, staying ever-ready, and building connections that compound. The episode covers the SEO quadrant and its four pillars, why your contact database is your most valuable SEO asset, and how first-party data from email lists outperforms second-party data from platforms like LinkedIn, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. Jonathan shares how NewsBreak and Medium drive backlinks and high domain authority, while Dr. Martin highlights the BlackNews.com story — a site built in 1999 on pure HTML that became the top black news site in the world because Google could easily crawl it. Favour performs a live Semrush audit, explains authority scores, and breaks down how commercial-intent articles like "top 10" lists build domain dominance the way Yelp does. The conversation also covers the new FTC rule on fake reviews, why your website must be the cornerstone of all marketing, and how SEO is ultimately about being the person of remembrance.Book SEO Services?

Georgia Begbie ist in Ittigen (BE) aufgewachsen, hat irisch-schottische Wurzeln und lebt heute als Profitänzerin in Mannheim. Beim Tanzfestival «Steps» steht sie dieses Jahr erstmals selbst auf der Bühne. Ein lang gehegter Traum. Die 31-jährige Georgia Begbie entdeckte das Tanzen mit vierzehn Jahren. Nach ersten Jazzdance-Stunden in Ostermundigen führte sie ihr Weg nach Dublin und später an die renommierte Fontys-Tanzschule in Tilburg in den Niederlanden. Dort fand sie ihre künstlerische Heimat im zeitgenössischen Tanz: «Ich habe relativ spät mit dem Tanzen begonnen, aber ich wusste von Anfang an, ich will Tänzerin werden.» Dieses Jahr tritt sie erstmals beim renommierten Migros-Kulturprozent Tanzfestival Steps auf. Mit der belgischen Dance Company «Circumstances» und dem Stück «Beyond». Ein besonderer Moment in ihrer tänzerischen Laufbahn: «Früher sass ich im Publikum, heute darf ich mein Können auf der Bühne zeigen.» «Mannheim wirkt industriell aber dahinter pulsiert eine lebendige Subkultur.» Seit sieben Jahren lebt die Bernerin Georgia Begbie in Mannheim (D). Dort hat sie ihren Lebensmittelpunkt gefunden und in zahlreichen Tanzprojekten mitgewirkt. Auf den ersten Blick wirke die Stadt unscheinbar, doch ihr Charme zeigt sich schnell. Mannheim biete einiges. Eine kreative Szene, offene Menschen und mit dem Louisenpark am Neckarufer sogar ein idyllisches Naherholungsgebiet: «Wie wir hier zu sagen pflegen: Man weint zweimal in Mannheim. Wenn man ankommt und wenn man wieder gehen muss.»

Caleb and Brittany record this episode live from CONEXPO 2026 in Las Vegas, discussing how their landscaping business evolved from small beginnings into a highly mechanized, technology-driven operation. Caleb explains how growing a company forced him to overcome his natural introversion and develop the confidence to price work correctly. The conversation dives into the importance of self-confidence, fast decision-making, and investing in modern equipment—like GPS grading and specialized attachments—to dramatically increase production. They also discuss the psychology of entrepreneurship, why hesitation can stall growth, and how successful contractors learn to execute once they have enough information. Throughout the episode, Caleb and Brittany credit mentors and industry experts who helped shape their business systems and thinking. Key Topics in This Episode Mechanization: Running a landscaping business in a highly mechanized era. The Founder's Journey: Overcoming introversion as a business owner. The Bottom Line: Building confidence in pricing and value. Cutting-Edge Tech: GPS grading and modern excavation technology. Execution: Making faster business decisions and avoiding "analysis paralysis." Community: Learning from mentors in the green industry. Systematization: Building systems instead of relying on brute-force labor.

In this episode of the Jim Paulsen Show, Jim joins Jack Forehand and Justin Carbonneau to break down the macro forces shaping today's markets and economy. Jim explains why the economy may be far weaker than headline GDP numbers suggest, how technology and AI investment are masking weakness in the broader economy, and why leadership in the stock market may be shifting. The conversation also explores the market implications of geopolitical conflict, the relationship between policy and market leadership, and how investors should think about AI's long-term economic impact.Topics covered in this episodeHow geopolitical events like the Iran conflict affect markets, volatility, oil prices, and investor sentimentWhy market reactions to geopolitical shocks often fade once the situation is “vetted” by investorsThe relationship between oil prices, the US dollar, and global financial marketsWhy Paulsen remains constructive on international stocks and emerging markets despite recent volatilityWhy energy and food now represent a much smaller share of consumer spending than in past inflation cyclesThe argument that inflation fears may be overstated given structural disinflationary forces in the economyHow AI and technological innovation can destroy some jobs while simultaneously creating new economic demandWhy technological progress often lowers costs and expands markets rather than simply eliminating workThe concept that the “new economy” driven by technology investment is now large enough to influence overall GDP growthPaulsen's analysis showing that roughly 11 percent of the economy tied to new-era investment is growing rapidly while the remaining 89 percent is barely growingWhy the broader economy may resemble a recession even while headline GDP remains positiveHow the dominance of large technology companies in indexes like the S&P 500 may be masking weakness in the broader marketThe historical “toggle” between technology leadership and broader market leadership in equity marketsWhy policy conditions like the yield curve and monetary easing often drive leadership shifts toward value, small caps, and cyclical stocksWhether the Federal Reserve could begin easing policy without a traditional recessionWhy policy support may eventually broaden the bull market beyond technology stocksTimestamps0:00 Jim Paulsen on geopolitical volatility, oil prices, and market reactions2:50 How investors should think about the Iran conflict and market implications10:50 The relationship between oil prices, the US dollar, and safe-haven flows12:20 Why Paulsen likes international and emerging market stocks14:30 Why higher oil prices may not lead to sustained inflation18:40 AI disruption and the economic debate around jobs and productivity23:00 How innovation historically creates new demand and economic growth29:40 Technology is the tail wagging the economic dog33:30 Why the “new economy” is growing far faster than the rest of the economy37:00 Evidence that most of the economy may already resemble a recession41:00 Profit growth disparity between technology and the rest of the economy45:40 Why the stock market can mask weakness in the broader economy46:30 The historical leadership toggle between tech and the broader market49:00 Valuation differences between technology and other sectors50:30 How policy conditions influence market leadership55:00 Signs that leadership may already be shifting beyond tech57:00 Could the Fed ease without a traditional recession59:00 What a policy shift could mean for the next phase of the bull market

What if the secret to scaling your business wasn't doing more, but doing less, better?

On today's episode of The American Land Man Podcast, we are back in the studio with Jeff Fern. We discuss:Buyer agency agreements matter more when seller-paid commission is uncertain.Local market knowledge helps investors avoid overpriced land deals.Profit in land investing is usually made when the property is bought right.Overpriced listings can sit for years when sellers ignore real market data.Large tracts require a specific buyer with capital and a clear strategy.“Trophy managed” is often overstated when the habitat work is not there.Hunting land buyers often expect food plots, water, trails, and blinds.Extra homes can hurt value when buyers do not want landlord headaches.Sellers price with emotion, but buyers usually focus on numbers and data.Sometimes the smartest investment move is walking away from the deal.And So Much More!Connect:-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerWhitetailProperties-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerFacebook-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerYouTube-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerInstagram

FREE Guide: The month-by-month roadmap to build your farm business from scratch. Grab it HERE A year ago, Hayden didn't even have a farm name. Now she's filing taxes on a profitable business and planning her exit from corporate. Here are the real numbers: roughly $7,000 in gross sales across subscriptions ($1,000), bulk buckets ($800-$1,000), individual bouquets ($1,000), U-pick events ($1,000), a 60-person corporate bouquet workshop ($800), and dried flowers and wreath workshops ($1,000). Expenses came in around $4,500-$5,000 not counting the $10,000+ she spent from grant money on the greenhouse, electric wheelbarrow, and infrastructure that'll last for years. Profit: about $2,000. Her first year. Most farms don't see profit for five. She's raising prices everywhere. Bulk buckets from $60 to $100. Build-your-own bouquets from $20 to $30-$50. Wreath workshops from $50 to $75+. Bouquet workshop events from roughly $50/person to $125-$175/person. She underpriced almost everything Year 1 and she knows it. The Year 2 goal is $30,000, broken into three seasonal buckets: $10,000 in spring flowers, $10,000 in summer bulk sales, and $10,000 in fall/winter dried flowers and workshops. She's hiring two people — one for harvesting and bouquets, one for manual labor. She's trying farmers markets for May and June only. She's secured drop-off locations in two nearby towns for subscription pickups. And she's already been asked to be the only flower vendor at a 1,000-person Mother's Day market. The biggest shift? She figured out what problem she actually solves. It's not "buy my pretty flowers." It's helping women feel unique, creative, and proud of what they put together — the baby shower that doesn't look like grocery store flowers, the dinner party centerpiece everyone asks about, the DIY wedding that saved thousands but still looked incredible. Once that clicked, her entire marketing strategy made sense. And the biggest news: she's quitting her corporate job by April. She's terrified. She's also never gotten a single grant or scholarship rejected — while getting rejected from dozens of job applications. The universe, as she puts it, keeps telling her she belongs here. This is what building a farm business from scratch actually looks like. No trust fund. No playbook. No one running it for her. Just a woman who decided a year ago that she'd regret it if she didn't try. Click HERE and Let's Meet! Chat with us to see if The Profitable Farmer can break you out of marketing misery.

The real breakthrough comes when you shift from lawyering to leading.On this episode of the Profit with Law Podcast, Moshe Amsel welcomes Adam Rosenblum of Rosenblum Law, for a candid and insightful dive into the journey of growing a law firm beyond solo status.

What if you could write a book without the crushing weight of actually having to sit down and..write the book? See, many people freeze at the idea of writing a business book because it feels like a massive undertaking. But it doesn't have to be. You can build a book by writing smaller pieces of content—like blog posts. And those blog posts can serve your business right now while you're working toward building something bigger.In this solo Talk Copy to Me episode, I'm walking you through two methods I've personally used to create books from smaller pieces of content. Both work. And better yet, both let you publish useful content that attracts your audience today while building toward a finished book tomorrow.______________________________________________EPISODE 183.Read the show notes and view the full transcript here: https://erinollila.com/writing-a-book-one-blog-post-at-a-time/______________________________________________Here's the info on your host, Erin OllilaErin Ollila believes in the power of words and how a message can inform – and even transform – its intended audience.

Chances are, your accounts receivable (AR) is not dialed in. Kiera provides very tactical, specific tips on how to get your AR cleaned up and start bringing in money you've already earned. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera and today is a very important topic But one the people like my rat rat rat, but guess what my rat rat rat is gonna make you a lot of money So I hope you're excited for it. So we'll take that rat rat rat into kaching Because it's dentistry party done and we're just gonna like help you out. I hope you guys enjoy hanging out with me This is my like nerdy geeky side that definitely loves and obsesses of being able to help you guys and it's been so fun I'm working with some people and teaching them about this and   getting them excited on how they can fix their AR ⁓ is something that just like really, really lights my fire because doctors, you do the freaking dentistry, get paid for it. Can I get an amen out there? Like seriously, you do the dentistry and AR and making sure you're paid is something that I am so obsessed about. So, and this doesn't mean doctors, have to do it yourself. So I want us to get into the AR like the womp, womp, womp, it's annoying, but guess what? These are billing tips that work that are gonna make you a lot of money for work that you've already done.   This is like people like, Kiera, how can I make more money and not do more work? And I'm like, just take the money, the what you've already done. it's crazy. lot of people come in and like, Kiera, you're really going to be able to like, ⁓ give us an ROI on your consulting. And I'm like, time. Why? Because I know your AR is out of control. have yet to meet a practice that has perfect AR. And if you are the practice email me, I'm going to give you a freaking shirt and we don't get out done on a team shirts anymore. So yeah, you should definitely email us. ⁓ there are a couple of practices out there.   But most the time, AR is something that is not dialed in. It does not have a plan. And this is something that is going to be very tactical for you. So first step is AR. What is AR? It's the accounts receivable. Okay. And there's two parts to it. AR has the patient portion and the insurance portion. Okay. So when we do dentistry, we need to make sure we collect money and we bill insurance and then we make sure that we get paid for that. Now, insurance is such a sneaky little game and I get so annoyed by it I love to teach people this.   So we need to have it where there's like a few processes that make AR really good. So we're gonna break it down very simply. Number one, good information in means good clean claims going out. I'm always like, we send clean claims. Clean claims mean, clean claims, clean claims. Clean claims, clean claims. ⁓ Clean claims. I'm gonna giggle saying it. I can hear the little jingle in my voice. Clean claims means that we...   have the correct information. So I've got the patient's name, the date of birth, the insurance information. That's all correct. I've got the group number and please for the love of everything, holy, do not make a million group numbers. Do not do that. Make sure AR are so messy and your insurance box is so messy. We just have it. We also need to have fee schedules that are up to date every single year. Please do that. We need to attach it. We do not want write-offs. So what this means, ⁓ also another like, it's not a pet peeve. It's just like,   Oh, I'm sorry. You need to like listen to the podcast and implement this. Stop reporting to me your fees in gross numbers and do it in net. So many times I get on calls with people and they're like, Kiera, we produced like 2 million, but we collected one. And I'm like, ouch. And they're like, well, like our net was like, you know, 1.2. I'm like, so tell me you produce 1.2. Let's live in real land numbers, not the 2 million. Cause you're always going to be mad at me. They're like, well, I produced 2 million, but I'm only making a million. Well, yeah.   Because guess what? You didn't really produce two million. I know you want to say you did, but guess what? Insurance is what really is paying you. So we've got to do that. And I know you don't want to, but when you will do this and you attach the correct fee schedules to it, you are actually going be able to predict your numbers better and your money and your finances are going to get better on your personal side too. So hear me out. It was the worst day. was worse than Christmas getting a lump of coal. I took our production and it dropped us by 30%. And guess what? My goals are to produce 20 grand in a five out practice per day. You want to know how hard that was? I was like, I'm never going to make it.   But guess what? Because I was reporting in real numbers, me even as a TC and an O.M. we were able to schedule more correctly and get us to the actual 15 grand of true 15, 20 grand per day of true production that we were collecting. How much do think my business grew? ⁓ a lot because we were actually producing incorrect numbers, not inflated numbers. So clean claims. We're back to that clean claims mean we've got correct information. We've got the correct ⁓ all of the information is correct.   We've got our insurance verification done and we've got the fee schedules attached. So then when I'm giving an estimate, I'm estimating to the best of my ability. We do not send pre-Ds. I call them pre-denials. You can have your own opinion, but I really truly do not like pre-denials. They take time, they waste energy. And to me, guess what? I got the best information. I'm a thousand dollars. I'm an insurance coupon. I need to be a dang good treatment coordinator that's able to communicate this. And if the patient owes money, guess what? We've got to be really good at communicating that too. This is our best estimate.   I'm gonna do my absolute best. We called your insurance company. I've got the best insurance verification. This is the absolute best I can get today. We're gonna take care of that. And on the flip side, hey, worst case scenario is you're gonna owe this much out of pocket. Tell them that. Then they're not mad at you when you call them. like, hey, insurance didn't pay as much as we thought. But remember, worst case scenario, this is what it is. And I can work with you to get that collected, okay? So then from there, we make sure we have correct documentation as well. We need to attach the correct narratives.   ⁓ insurance or excuse me, x-rays, intra-orals, whatever we need to get that paid. Insurance companies are obsessed with not paying for you, but it's because they play the game. So just figure out the rules of the game. We have our fee schedules in there. We send the correct documentation and we send it out every day and we check to make sure none of these claims get stuck in our claim sender. Okay, so we wanna make sure it goes through the clearing house. It doesn't get stuck there. I feel like that's like the post office for claims. We send it through and we make sure all of them get pushed through to the insurance company.   and then we follow up. And now this is where I need owners of each of them. So we need somebody to make sure that all of our intake process is correct. We need someone to make sure that our, what we send out in our claims is correct. And we tell the clinical team what we need for every single claim. And then from there, we have one person who owns our billing department. AR needs to have a clear owner. Who is our billing person that works on this every single day? Yes, you heard me. Because the goal is to get our claims paid within 30 days. You can do it. It's doable, but you gotta have a process.   So that person then their job is I recommend we run the AR list at the beginning of every single month. Then we put it into an Excel spreadsheet or however you want to do it. I found that it's easiest in Excel and then we have it color coded. And I like it to be broken down so that way the biller, their goal is to get through every single patient. Yes. And I have seen 2,500 patients, 7,500 patients. Like it is amazing how many like line items we can get. Hopefully you're more like the 500 to 700 patients on that AR list.   Then what we do from there is we've got patient portion and insurance portion. And what we want to do is we want to actually get this really, really dialed in to where we are collecting at time of service, the patient portion. My hope is that your patient portion that's due is very minimal. And the only time we have a patient portion due is because insurance didn't pay as much as we expected them to. So we got to go collect. We've already collected the money before they go out. Please, for the love of everything, holy do not let your patients just be like, I'll pay you with an insurance pays. Absolutely not.   collect the money today. It is much easier to collect today and give a refund than it is to go chase money. I'd rather you get paid today, wait on insurance. That's fine. But be like, hey, we call your insurance. We estimate really, really well. This is how much we're going to collect today. And then, hey, if it's good news, great. We're going to be able to get you a refund. And if it's not, then great. We're not going to have to call you and ask for as much in the future. So this is what we're estimating. This is our best estimate. We've called your insurance company. We've done everything we possibly can to make sure it's the best we can. And I guarantee you, we're going to take great care of you.   Collect the money. Then when it comes in, what I like for the biller to do is to look, what did this insurance company actually pay? And then go update your fee schedule to the true numbers, because fee schedules are just very generic, but for your area and your zip code, we actually like, if insurance billers will go through and look at that and be like, on a crown, Delta Dental actually pays $758. You're like, yeah, right here, it's like 500. Okay, so $558, but we had 500 in there.   Go update that so then we collect more accurately throughout the year. If we are really disciplined in this and our insurance biller will do this, your billing gets so much tighter and we have less money in our AR. Then we go through it, we go through every single claim. Now if your insurance is a lot in the AR, because we haven't worked it, you're gonna wanna work with the top pieces first. The most expensive, the biggest accounts, and I work insurance ones, and then I work patient ones. And I also am looking at the 90 days, and then the 60 days, and then the 30 days.   And then the zero, don't even like zero to 30. don't even touch that 30 to 60. Yes. 60 to 90. Yes. Over 90 for sure. I'm going to hit that. So you can sort your listing Excel of the biggest account balances. And we're going to call the insurance. We're going to call the patients because you feel like you made like a lot of progress. Also, we can look down at the bottom. Another thing too, is sometimes there's like $5, $10. If your insurance list is really big and your AR is really large, sometimes I recommend writing like below $10. Now this is your money. It's not mine. So you do what you want to do with it.   Sometimes I do recommend writing that off, but before we do it, we're to want to send statements to everybody, see if we can collect any of that. Then we have a set date where we're just going to write it off and call it bad debt. We're going to fix our processes moving forward. But if you will do this and you follow it and everybody follows it every single week, every single month, your AR is going to get cleaned up. So people are like, but it's so hard. And we have like one person who owns it. And I say like Tuesdays and Thursdays are insurance and Monday, Wednesday, Fridays are patients. And we call our patients and we do our insurance.   and we clean it up and we get the correct fee schedules and we make sure that we're following up consistently. We're hearing, excuse me, what they say on the ⁓ claims. We're hearing what they are denying. Also, just because it's on a claim and they on an EOB and they say, you need to write this off. We do need to be really smart on insurance and we don't just say, we wrote it off. Absolutely not. We double check, we verify why was it written off? What were the reasons for it? Can we resubmit it? Can we get this paid? Is this a patient portion that needs to be paid?   Do not just write it off because the EOB says it was written off. So we do not do that. Then what I also recommend is we often wait till the end of the month. We talk to our billers and they didn't get through all their AR. Office managers should be meeting every single week with their billing coordinator and the biller needs to be reporting. Here's how much AR I've completed. This is where I'm at. This is my plan for the next week. I'm going to get through every single patient this month. Also, we do not just send statements out. People love to do this. I'm very pro.   We call first, we text and then we send a statement. Why not just call them right then and there and be like, hey, Kiera, great news. We got insurance paid, we owe this amount and I can take card when you're ready and get that all cleared up for you. Send them a text with the payment link. Here you go, this is the balance and they will pay it. Send them a statement that has a QR code to pay online. You guys stop having them write checks and send it to the practice. Make it easy, talk to your payment processor. I love Moola for this. They make it so easy for patients to pay and their fees are so low. So if you need it, tell Moola, The Dental A Team, sent you.   They're incredible and they're a great processor for you. But this is where it has to be. And I'm really big on what we need to have our goals be. So I like to make this simple. Our over 90 should be no more. All of our collective AR should be no more than one month's worth of collection. So if you're producing 100,000, there should be no more than 100,000 sitting in AR. you've got more than that, let's fix   the way I like the goals to be is I like it to be it's no more than 15 % is in our 30 to 60. And the reason why is because that's going to be pretty big. Now zero to 30, I don't worry about, but it's 15 % or less in our 30 to 60. Then it's 10 % or less in our 60 to 90 and less than 5 % over in our over 90. We want to make sure that it follows that. So that way you guys are able to, but great. And those are very generic and you can get those lower. The only thing that usually impacts are over 90 are usually payment plans and also ortho.   So if you have those in there, there are ways that we can discuss with you on how to get those out to clean up your AR, but you've got to have this structured. We've got to have this to where people are following it. And we need to get this in every single week and like truly work with our billers. And if offices will follow this, you guys, this is something that is not hard, but it does take discipline and discipline does equal freedom. And doctors, had a doctor and she was just like, Kiera, I'm not making any money. And I was like,   I don't understand because you have so much money in AR and your production's so great, but we're not collecting the money. So step one is we collect. Now, if your AR is also like ballooned out of control, we can fix it and we collect money when they check in and we make sure we collect on the checkout. So this way we're catching both sides of when patients are in the practice. And some people are weird about that. And I'm like, why are you weird about that? We know they have a balance and we're gonna collect it when they check in. Think about going to the doctor's office. So like perfect, they collect money as soon as you check in every single time.   It's not weird for people to do that in healthcare. So let's collect on the intake and let's collect on the outtake when we're giving the treatment plans. These two areas are gonna fix AR and people are like, that's so hard. And I'm like, I would much rather collect money when they're in the practice rather than needing to call them. Also, another mode of thought is I don't ever give more than 1 % of collections in refund checks every single month. So refunds and credits can get really ballooned people are like freaked out about that. Cause maybe like collected too much, which is like,   High five, good. I'm not saying over collect, like, hey, insurance paid more like that's a win. But before we give those refund checks out, those are the ones I'm gonna call first to see, do they have unscheduled treatment? Like, hey, great news, your insurance paid more than we thought. Let's get you scheduled, let's use that credit for this treatment. So it's a great way to fill your schedule too. But hey, if there's a true credit on the account, let's just start writing 1%. So if we're producing 100,000, what's 1 %? You got it, a thousand bucks, okay?   So 1 % of that, we're gonna then write those refund checks back for that month. This way it doesn't hurt your overhead of time. Now watch because there are certain state laws that do require you to give refunds sooner than that. So check your state laws and make sure like whatever it is. There are some new ones that have just come out. So be sure to check that so you're compliant with your state laws. If there's nothing about it, 1 % is usually a pretty good frame of mind. So that was a quick down and dirty and I hope you enjoyed it. But really taking it from clean claims, you're welcome.   to fee schedules being entered in, to submitting claims and making sure they go through, to following up on our insurance, making sure that we're tracking that so everybody knows where our claims are at, what things are going on with that. And then from there, we're gonna make sure that we have ⁓ every single week check in with our biller. And billers know we want 15 % in our 30 to 60, 60 to 90 is 10%, over 90 is no more than 5%, no more than one month's worth of collections total in our AR, and giving back 1 % refunds.   You guys, this is something I obsessed about. This is something we work with billers on. I have a practice in Oklahoma that we worked with. They had 2,700 line items of this and we just worked with our team and we cleaned and we cleaned it and it took us about two years and we were able to get them back into perfect collections, perfect processes. It took a while, but discipline, dedication and setting these things into place now are going to protect you and prevent this from happening in the future. Also, there are some great AI companies that you can use.   ⁓ Lassie is a great one that I've heard of. There's a few new ones coming up on the market. So if you need help with it, insurance verification, you can outsource. We have a lot of resources. So if you need any email Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. And if you're like, I need help, I'm drowning, I'm not making money. Let's talk. Profit production guys. it's the way we get more profit. We either increase our production, decrease our spending or increase our collections. Those are the three levers. So whatever those three we need to work on. And sometimes it's so hard because you're like,   But like I'm doing dentistry all day long, Carrie, I have time. You're right. You're supposed to be the dentist and the CEO. Let us train your team for you. That's what we love to do. Work with you and your team. So reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. Commit to being profitable this year.

We're happy to build KPI scorecards so you can watch it and utilizing analytics for it. So it's never daunting and scary.   It's disciplined dedication and dedicated time to make sure this happens.
